JoomLMS 2.0.3 New Features

 

New Course Settings

Starting from version 2.0.3 it is possible to configure the way students see the course resources results. For example, you can determine whether the Learning path progress is shown as a progress bar or as “Completed/Incomplete”, Quiz results are shown as points or as “Passed/Failed” etc.)

New Payment Methods

In version 2.0.3 we added 2 new payments methods: RoboKassa and Free trial. Free trial payment allows a student to enroll in the selected paid course free of charge for a limited period of time (can be used once per course).

Italian and Hungarian languages

Thanks to our clients, JoomLMS is now available in Italian and Hungarian languages.

New Modules: “My courses” and “Switch Course”

We added a new module “My courses” to display a list of user’s courses on any Joomla! website page and “Switch Course” to toggle between several courses.


JoomLMS 2.0.3 Improvements

 

Registration/Login Process

We improved the registration/login process during the enrollment/checkout. Now a user doesn’t need to leave the checkout page to process the course purchase.

Mobile Compatibility

Touch screen support for Drag&Drop questions as well as better optimization for various LMS elements (login, top header, and menu) were added.

Payment Improvements

We improved the Back End payments search feature, added information about the “coupon code” used and a filter “by a coupon code”. We also enhanced the check-out using the 'Authorize.net' payment method, in particular, inserted additional instructions with the tooltip images to help to enter the credit card information.

Filter by Category

The filter by category got improved. Now the courses are filtered without the page reloading.

Course Topics Management

Starting from version 2.0.3 it is possible to add resources from the File Library to the Topics.

Performance Improvements

We aded new indexes to tables, optimized several resource-intensive queries and improved database structure.

Other Improvements

We added the "New/Import" buttons to the ‘My Courses’ module at the JoomLMS homepage, improved the JoomLMS install/upgrade process and the Quizzes statistics report layout.
